Yet some courts - including the U.S. Supreme Court, the Supreme Court of India, and the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal - have continued to progressively realize the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) persons. How can the seeming paradox of LGBTQ+ rights advancement amid liberal constitutional regression be understood? And what, in turn, does that tell us about the state of liberal constitutionalism and rights adjudication? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eCourts and LGBTQ+ Rights in an Age of Judicial Retrenchment\u003c\/em\u003e addresses these questions by exploring rights adjudication within the broader context of declining liberal constitutionalism within the U.S., India, and Hong Kong. By analysing landmark LGBTQ+ rights judgments and topical case studies in increasingly challenging political and institutional contexts, this book provides detailed, qualitative accounts of constitutionalism in these jurisdictions over the past two decades. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eProgressive and original, this book explores how courts often use LGBTQ+ rights to demonstrate their rhetorical commitment to liberal and global constitutionalism, even as their judgments may fall short of, or even undermine, those ideals.","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47594777182359,"sku":"9780198888277","price":14110.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780198888277.webp?v=1774987121","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/courts-and-lgbtq-rights-in-an-age-of-judicial-retrenchment-9780198888277","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
